It willl be iteresting to see if this affects resale value. The people that can’t afford a new one probably won’t have the money to replace all of the broken stuff on a used one. lol The car may be durable as hell but after reading that warning I wonder. It certainly doesn’t instill confidence. ---

I am sure people will drive these in the snow. It’s not like it is a Ferrari. Imagine in just a year or two you might be able to get one for $45000. ---

The only problem I have with it is this one: > \< Operating the vehicle with the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) off, except when rocking vehicle when stuck in mud or snow; So driving my performance car without the stupid computer nanny overriding my every decision voids the warranty?

^Exactly. They may not dd but some will get driven, that is all I am saying. It is a n AWD Nissan not a RWD Ferrari. ---

The people that think their ferrari won’t be able to fair the rough weather probably just buy Cayennes. Or, they work from home that day. ---

Can you lease these? I would love to lease one, I think they would have to give me and entire new one at least twice. It doesn’t say anything about driving with some R-compound tires in there anywhere does it? 😉 Just wait until you can buy a really tranny for this car, then I bet it would be a fun ringer. Oh and I’d drive it in the snow for sure. ---

Or, they work from home that day. If I’m rich enough to buy a Ferrari and a GT-R at any point in my life (or their equivalents at that time), I’d rather DD the GT-R in winter than a SUV. I hate the plush, overweight, soft road-going SUVs. ---

I am shocked tho that you can still drive this thing in the snow or rain without voiding this. haha I do wonder if you ended up leasing one of these and breaking this how bad they charge you. ---

In order to prove my statement, it only needs to be true that there is \>0 rich people who DD a GT-R in winter. Since when were we talking about majorities? I never said anything about majorities. Someone mentioned how strange it would be seeing a GT-R driving in winter. Another mentioned ACTUALLY seeing one driving in winter. They didn’t say anything about majorities, and neither do I. I do not think that a “majority” of rich people will be driving GT-Rs in winter. That’s completely insane. I think there are rich people who do it, though. If but one person does it, that’s an adequate number to make it possible to see someone doing it. Where the hell did you get “majority” from? ---
